ActionScript 2.0 :: Playing 15 Movies (SWF Files) One After Another
Jul 13, 2009
I have 15 movie clips that play one at a time. When the first one calls the second movie clip there is a short space (black screen) between the two which I have to eliminate. I tried loading the second one half way thru the first movie then tell it to play when the first movie is over, but when I do that you can see a disturbance in the first movies performance when the second one is pre-loaded. Is there a way around this so I can make 15 movies run seamlessly? They are separate .swf files!

apologies if this seems like a redundant question... i've been reading through all the turorials and forum threads i can find, and am just confused at to what exactly i need to do next.... my first time trying to use preloaders but am finding i need them in order to make my project run smoothly.... my situation: want to preload 5 swf files into my main movie, and have them at the ready to play when i want them to (either by an onEnterFrame or onPress).
i started working with some preload array script from Scotty i found on one of the threads, but elsewhere i've seen info about putting extra frames into the uploading swfs and am unsure what i need to do with this or how it would fit in with the below code. right now, when i try to play one of the uploaded swf files nothing is happening, and i'm guess my code is wrong there too, but don't know what to put....

I have several movies that will be loaded into a main movie. I am loading the movies when the user chooses to open each movie. The problem is that then the user has to wait until each movie loads. Is there any way to change this?

Here is one of those problems that seems like it should work because it is soo basic in implemintation, but just doesn't....The trace in this code works, but the mcs that I want to play just wont move. I have a stop action on its own keyframe within each movie on frame 1. If I take the stop action out all the mcs will play/loop just fine.All of the code is on an actions layer, then each mc is within its respective container. I even put a test mc on the main level and it doesn't work.This is one of the instances where, teaching yourself flash is great because you learn exactly what you are interested in, however because of the lack of structured or formal training, the basics often escape you.
EDIT : Oh, and because I can usually solve something by tracing everything out...in this case trace has failed to shed light on theissue,
[code]
this.buttonContainer.btnSelect.onPress = select;
function select() {
this.textContainer.textMask.gotoAndPlay(2);[code].....

I am creating a website that teaches kids about the about the brain and I am creating a website very familiar to this one, [URL]. I created one flash file and drew the background for where the text will display. Next I created several movie clips for each of the brain parts and I placed an invisible button over each of these movies, e.g., I told the button, "cerebellum_button" to play the movie "cerebellum_mc." which includs text.
I feel that my code is redundant because I am having to create an invisible button for each animated movie clip which plays a movie clips with text. Is there a way that I can centralize all of the text in the project then call it from different buttons? My aim is to have the user roll over the brain part, have it animate, and have it display the text that explains what that brain part does.
cerebellum_button.onRollOver = function(){
cerebellum_mc.gotoAndStop("turnon");
} cerebellum_button.onRollOut = function(){
cerebellum_mc.gotoAndStop("turnoff");

I have a 1900 x 1240 .swf file that has a set of buttons on each side. Each button calls for and loads a single movie into a 900 x 600 area in the middle of the screen. I haven't had any trouble setting things up so that the .swf movies, including a converted QTVR file, all load into that 900 x 600 area. One of my buttons calls for a .swf movie that contains a zoom-in and rescale - the link for how this was created can be found at Flash Zoom In Movie Clip and Rescale. The stage for this file is set at 900 x 600. When this Zoom.swf is loaded up by pressing the button, it resizes itself to 1900 x 1240. As well as being annoying, this obliterates the view of all my buttons and interface. I just can't figure out how to make it sit in the middle of the screen at a size of 900 x 600.

wherever I look for scripts is either AS 1.0 or 3.0... I used to work as a cartoon animator (didn't need AS at all) now I'm trying to build up my own site to show my portfolio. I'm having difficulties loading and unloading external swf files. Basically I'm a total newbie, I managed to figure out that you need an empty movie clip where it will be played, and the buttons themselves...

Before I start off; I'm not a pro at Flash at all.
Folder structure:
start.swf
assets/moviecontainer.swf
assets/flv/movie.flv
What I want is to open start.swf, have it embed moviecontainer.swf which has a FLV playback object that loads in the movie.flv. When I check my moviecontainer.swf, it runs properly. But when I use start.swf it loads moviecontainer.swf (because I can see it has the background and all) but the movie won't play (and I think the buttons don't work anymore)
I have saved both .swfs with the "Local files only" option. I have no idea what the problem can be, as I said, I'm no Flash pro and I have no experience as to say "oh it looks like we got that xyz problem.."

Ok so I have a flash banner I am working on. It is basically 3 flv files. 1 for the main content, and 2 for the background.
What I want to do is load in the first flv for the background, as soon as it is done playing I want to play the second flv, Then once the second flv is finished playing I want it to loop continuously.
The main content flv will then be layed overtop of this and play through once and stop while the background continues to loop.[code]...

I am developing a VB.NET Windows application that plays SWF and FLV files in popup windows.
The user presses a button on the main application form, a window pops up, and the Flash media will then play (in theory).
I was successful in getting SWF files to play. First, I added the Shockwave Flash Object AciveX control to my toolbox (VB.NET named it AxShockwaveFlash1), and then double clicked it to add it to my popup form. Then, in the startup routine for my popup, I added the following lines to play my SWF:
AxShockwaveFlash1.Movie = "path/filename.swf"
AxShockwaveFlash1.Play()
I attempted exactly the same approach using a separate form for an FLV file, this time of course setting the Movie property of the Shockwave Flash Object to "path/filename.flv". In this case, the FLV file did not play. There were no error messages, but just a popup screen with nothing on it.

I have three flv files that I need to play sequentially, one right after the other in the same location (box) in an html document. I have segmented the video because of it's size. Does any one know how I would make this happen or where I can find some sort of tutorial that can assist me with this? I also have another project in which I have 4 animations that I want to play in sequence but they are in different locations on the web page.

I've made several FLV files and they all pause while playing. A 3 minute video 640x360, 37MB will pause 4 times. If I open the page and let it sit about 3 minutes before playing the video, then it will play smoothly but since no one will ever do that I must resolve the issue. Also, once it plays all the way through, then it will play smoothly, but again, I need it to play smoothly the first time someone clicks on it.[URL]..

I want a swf file that will play other swf files one after the other. They are swf, not video files, as I need to change everything on the page when the video stops playing. So, one swf opens with a custom page - plays a video - and then the next swf will open and do the same thing. There's much talk about 'typing stop(); on the last frame of a video" - As far as I can see - everything is automatically sitting on a single frame in Flash - whether it's scene 1, or I open the movie file - the movie is all playing in one frame. If try to simple put different material on a second frame, it loops back and forth between one frame of each movie (it will change the background, and video - but I get only ONE frame of each movie - not the full movie before switching).

I am doing a mobile application using air and as3.0. And I am using two databases - one is mysql for online data access and another one is sqlite3 for local data access. Once I download a song from server database, it should store in ApplicationStorageDirectory in the folder named "tracks". All the songs are in mp3 format. Finally my question is... How can I save mp3 files in ApplicationStorageDirectory and How can I play those files by referring to the ApplicationStorageDirectory path?

As more and more FLV videos are moving to HD, I'm noticing high CPU usage and lots of dropped frames when playing FLV video in web browser with Flash 10. This is true even if the video isn't full screen. I've tried a variety of browsers (Firefox, I.E., Chrome) and the problem occurs on all of them so it's pretty clear it's a limitation in Flash.
Now my PC isn't high end (it has a Pentium M 1.86 GHz processor), but I can take those same FLV files and load them in something like Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player (when using ffdshow) and play the FLV files full screen with little or no drop in frames and an acceptable CPU rate.
This is especially annoying on sites like YouTube where I actually have to save the video and play it back in something other than Flash to have it play back at an acceptable rate. This doesn't work for other sites like Amazon.
Why is the CPU usage so high when decoding and displaying videos when compared to other media players?

I dynamically loaded swf files through loadmovie, into a main movie which has six scenes. I made a button to go from scene 1 to scene 2, and when I go to scene 2, the swf continues to play from scene 1. How can I stop the swf from playing before it goes go to the next scene. I need to stop the swf when it exits scene. What's the easiest way this can be done. I'm using Actionscript 2.0.

I'm currently working on a project where I mix animation sequences with short videos. My project also has two scenes and the FLV will be placed on the main time line of the second scene. The problem I am having is, if the movie is previewed from the first scene, or exported, the FLV on scene 2 won't load. the timeline on the playhead will just spin. I'm currently using "Load external video with playback component" as the method for importing the flv file.I have already worked with this video multiple times in other flash files and have never had a problem loading the video. Is there a limitation to FLV playback in multiple scene movies?

I thought that FMS3.1 supported f4v files but I cannot get mine to play. It says it cannot find the stream specified but the file is right where all my other files are that do play fine (both flv and mp4 files). Am I incorrect in thinking that FMS3.1 supports f4v files or do I have the wrong code?

I'm using Flash CS4 and I have a jukebox coded in AS3 to play songs 1-4.
If I click publish preview>Flash, everything works fine. The songs load, play, and can have their volumes adjusted.
If I export a swf file and the associated html file, along with the songs in the same directory structure as they were on my computer (in an audio folder in the same directory as the swf), the graphics show up, but the music doesn't play when I click the song buttons.
what I may have done wrong to go from a working publish preview of flash to a non-functional swf and html on the web?
